A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that is associated with an Internet domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most common use of a TXT record is to add your website to an online search engine or to an analytics platform, which provides details about the traffic to your website. Creating this sort of a record functions as proof that you are the domain name owner and they will provide the content that you ought to include as the value when you create the record. Another application of a TXT record is to verify that an e-mail message is sent by the domain address owner and from a reliable server - this is the so-called SPF protection, which helps prevent any electronic address set up under your domain to be forged and unauthorized people to send out junk e-mail making it look like it was mailed from your own mailbox. You can include any other information that you'd like to be associated with your domain name in a TXT record as well.
